Ron Wyatt recovered some rivets from Noah's Ark site which contained aluminum and other high tech metals/alloys. This tells me that the ancients were not as low tech as supposed. Here's another one,
http://thelebanon.info/lebanon_photos_004.htmlThese are the largest cut stones known on the entire planet. By some figures they weigh as much as 1,200 tons. Some had been moved and then lifted to be placed on top of other, smaller cut stones. Virtually nothing is known as to who, when, how, or why.
Best guesses place them cut and moved, lifted and set in place around 5,000 years ago, about the same time as the Flood. They were cut/stacked with such precision that one is still unable to work a pocket knife blade into the seams between the blocks.
I've done a little research on these cut blocks and here's what I've found. There is no current tech to cut such large blocks nor match the precision with which these ancient stones were cut, they're virtually perfect rectangles.
There are maybe 2 or 3 cranes in existence that can lift 800-1000 tons. However, that's all they can do, straight up and straight down. The load cannot be swung in either direction as the momentum could not be controlled. If lifted and then lowered onto a super duty truck bed, the roadway would have to be perfectly smooth and level. Any deviation in the gradient, up or down, and either the truck would be unable to ascend the gradient, or it would be impossible to brake the truck once it descended down even the most miniscule incline.
There is no evidence of any roadways in close proximity to either the quarry or the edifice. The area is in fact cut by ravines.
One of the many anomolies of this structure is that the largest blocks are not the foundation blocks, which is the opposite of virtually all other edifices where the largest blocks are those on the bottom of the stack.
Somebody, (and as yet for some unknown reason), went to a whole lot of trouble to lift and stack these blocks on top of smaller cut blocks. However, they're smaller only in comparison as they're still enormous in there own right.
There are some very cool pics and worth checking out. It's a real brain teaser.
